Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You should be stronger than me
You been here seven years longer than me
Don't you know? You supposed to be the man
Not pale in comparison to who you think I am
[Verse 2]
You always wanna talk it through
I don't care
I always have to comfort you when I'm there
But that's what I need you to do
Stroke my hair
[Chorus]
'Cause I've forgotten all of young love's joy
Feel like a lady and you my lady boy
[Verse 3]
You should be stronger than me
But instead you're longer than frozen turkey
Why'd you always put me in control?
All I need is for my man to live up to his role
[Verse 4]
Always wanna talk it through, I'm okay
Always have to comfort you every day
But that's what I need you to do, are you gay?
[Chorus]
'Cause I've forgotten all of young love's joy
Feel like a lady and you my lady boy
[Verse 5]
He said, the respect I made you earn
Thought you had so many lessons to learn
I said, you don't know what love is, get a grip
Sound as if you're reading from some other tired script
[Verse 6]
I'm not gonna meet your mother anytime
I just wanna grip your body over mine
Please tell me, why you think that's a crime?
I've forgotten all of young love's joy
Feel like a lady and you my lady boy
[Outro]
You should be stronger than me
You should be stronger than me
You should be stronger than me
You should be stronger than me
